Traveling through Chengcunhua to fight the war

Chapter 10 Little Peach Blossom is Sold

But Yang Xiaoyu and Gu Xi hurried to the small village, and Su Jinglan followed well before.Unexpectedly, the car broke down halfway and stopped on the side.She looked at the car and sneered. Seeing Su Jinglan's smile, Wu Jing panicked and broke out in cold sweat.He hid behind the car, trying to minimize his presence.

And at the aunt's house, Xiao Taohua was squatting in the yard drinking cold well water.Although the weather is not cold at this time, Xiao Taohua has been hungry for a long time, but now she can only drink cold water.Stomach churning uncomfortable, stomach cramps.

The aunt came over and snatched the ladle from Xiao Taohua's hand, and Xiao Taohua shrank back in fright from the sudden movement.When the aunt saw Xiao Taohua being so aggrieved, she became angry and pinched Xiao Taohua's arm.

Xiao Taohua yelled 'Mmm' in pain, she remembered Yang Xiaoyu's explanation.Don't talk until my sister tells you to.

Now that she was beaten so painfully that she dared not cry out, the aunt went into the house angrily and took some clothes out after a while.Pointing to the well water, he took another wooden basin for Xiao Taohua, and said to Xiao Taohua, "Wash your clothes, don't even think about eating until you finish washing."

The aunt's surname is Zhang, and she is a well-known dominatrix in these eight villages.It was time for breakfast, so she went in and warmed up some steamed buns and started eating.Xiao Taohua was so hungry that she tightened her trouser belt again, and while rubbing her clothes, she shed tears into the tub.

After a while, there was a knock on the door of Mrs. Zhang's house, and the voice was very impatient.Aunt Zhang put down her bowl and chopsticks and went to open the door, she opened the door and yelled, "Who is calling for your life? It's here, it's here..."

The door opened with a 'click', and Xiao Taohua listened with pricked ears in the backyard.But when she heard a man's voice, Xiao Taohua washed the dirty clothes with tears again.

It was a man from Aunt Zhang's family who came in, and he looked like a rough guy.His mouth smelled of alcohol, and his body was covered with scars.It looked like a mess.

When Aunt Zhang saw him like this, she said angrily: "What's the matter? Are you going to gamble again?"

"You bitch, you know nothing! I don't get money from gambling." Old man Zhang pointed at Aunt Zhang's nose and cursed.

Aunt Zhang snorted coldly, sat down next to old man Zhang and picked up a bun.He took a bite and said while chewing: "I tell you, I met a woman when I opened the door this morning. She gave me two oceans and asked me to take care of her sister."

"Sister?" Old man Zhang's eyes sparkled when he heard this, and Aunt Zhang slapped the table.Xiao Taohua in the backyard shivered when she heard the loud voice.

Aunt Zhang said to old man Zhang: "Look at your dead ghost, you are a six or seven-year-old boy."

"Oh." Old man Zhang nodded, rubbing the back of his head and smiling.Suddenly he was taken aback, then got up and pulled Aunt Zhang and said: "Hey, I heard that there is a big landlord's house at the east entrance of the village. Their youngest son is not in good health, and they are looking for a child bride-in-law to make a happy event. Tell me, should we Try it in the past? Maybe, even if you are being spotted, you will reward us with a few dollars."

Aunt Zhang was also very happy when she heard the words, and the two went to the backyard together to look at Xiao Taohua who was doing laundry.

The youngest son of the landlord's family is not in poor health, but really sick.I'm already over ten years old, and I still hang around every day without knowing what to do, drooling and yelling '嘿嘿哭哭'.

The two cleaned up and took Xiao Taohua to the landlord's house at the east entrance of the village, and Xiao Taohua's dirty face was washed clean.It looks a bit like Erya.

Yang Xiaoyu and Gu Xi were riding horses, Yang Xiaoyu was always restless along the way.Gu Xi noticed and asked her, "What's wrong?"

"I always feel that something is going to happen, hurry up!" Yang Xiaoyu urged Gu Xi, and Gu Xi lightly kicked the horse's belly when he heard this.The horse also ran much faster.

After a long time, Yang Xiaoyu and Gu Xi finally rushed to the village, but they saw that the doors and windows of Aunt Zhang's house were closed.Yang Xiaoyu jumped off the horse and slapped the door in disbelief, looking at the lock on the door.Yang Xiaoyu looked back at Gu Xi, tears were about to come out.

"Gu Xi, what should I do? Little Peach Blossom, why is there no one here? I handed her over to the aunt at the time, how could this happen?" Yang Xiaoyu burst into tears, and slapped the door incoherently .I have never been so worried when I met a little devil.

Gu Xi also jumped in front of Yang Xiaoyu, patted Yang Xiaoyu's back lightly and comforted Yang Xiaoyu: "It's all right, don't worry. Let's look around here slowly, Xiao Taohua will be fine of."

While walking, Yang Xiaoyu talked to Gu Xi about her worries: "What if the Japanese capture her? Where will Xiao Taohua go?"

Gu Xi was upset at this moment, but suddenly saw a window of a house half open.Inside stood a woman.Without saying a word, Gu Xi knocked on the door of that house, and saw the woman leave from the window in panic.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaoyu hurriedly followed, but saw Gu Xi grabbing the woman's arm and asking sharply, "Say! Where did that family go?"

The woman was obviously very scared when she encountered this situation, and hesitated for a long time without saying a word.

Yang Xiaoyu stepped forward and took out a piece of ocean from her body.He put it on his hand and comforted her softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid. We are not bad people, but I just want to ask where your family has gone. Can you tell us? As long as you say this ocean is Yours."

The woman stretched out her hand timidly, and pushed Yang Xiaoyu's hand holding Dayang away.He said timidly: "I don't want your money. I really don't know where their family has gone. It's just that they left early in the morning and brought a child I haven't seen before."

"Child," Yang Xiaoyu nodded immediately, "That's right, that's the kid. Do you know where they went?"

"I don't know, I just watched them rush to the east entrance of the village." After the woman finished speaking, Gu Xi let go of her wrist.The girl rubbed her wrist and asked Yang Xiaoyu, "What does that child have to do with you?"

Yang Xiaoyu didn't have time to explain for a while, but asked urgently: "What do you think they are going to the east entrance of the village? Why do they have to take a child to the east entrance of the village?"

The woman turned her eyes and said to Yang Xiaoyu: "There is a landlord named Wu Landlord at the east entrance of the village. Their family has a young son who recently wanted to find a little girl as a child bride. Maybe the old Zhang family sent the child there just because of this. .”

"Child bride! This is against the law! You..." Yang Xiaoyu suddenly stopped talking. It is normal for child brides at this time.And there can't be more. In the village where she lived when she was a child, there was an old woman who was sold as a child bride when she was a child.

Yang Xiaoyu glanced at Gu Xi, and then Yang Xiaoyu ran out.Gu Xi took two steps and looked back at the woman. She drew out her gun and said fiercely to the woman, "Did you just tell the truth or a lie?"

"Oh my god! I must be telling the truth. I, I don't need to lie to you." The woman was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground.

Seeing this, Gu Xi put away the gun, just as Yang Xiaoyu who was outside rode the horse over.The two got on their horses and rushed to the landlord's house at the east entrance of the village.

At the door of the landlord's house, Gu Xi and Yang Xiaoyu dismounted.Looking at the situation here, although it is a landlord's house, it is not so luxurious in this small rural village.It just takes up a little more space.

After a while, Gu Xi tied the horse and went to knock on the door with Yang Xiaoyu.

The one who came out to open the door was a young man in his twenties, who was stunned for a while when he saw Yang Xiaoyu.Then he was brought back to reality by Gu Xi's voice.

"Hey, have you seen an old woman bring a child here?" Gu Xi's voice was nice, but the grimace mask on his face was not pleasant.

Hearing the words, the young man said foolishly, "I don't know what kind of aunt or child it is."

When Yang Xiaoyu and Gu Xi were really in a hurry, they didn't have the time to make trouble with him.Gu Xi hit his front teeth with his fist, and three teeth fell out in an instant, and blood gushed from his mouth.Gu Xi held up his collar and asked, "You still don't know?"

"I know, I know! That Aunt Zhang and Old Man Zhang just left here."

He is now slurring his speech due to missing teeth and nervousness.

Gu Xi firmly grabbed his collar, took out a gun with one hand and pointed it at his head, and said, "Quickly tell me, where did that little girl go?"

When the young man saw the gun, his calf became weak with fright, and Yang Xiaoyu kicked the door open when he saw this.Glancing at the young man, she said to Gu Xi: "Look at him, he doesn't know anything. Let's go in and ask that landlord!"

Hearing this, Gu Xi threw the man to the ground vigorously, snorted coldly, and rushed in with Yang Xiaoyu.

The young man's teeth were still hurting, and blood gushed out of his mouth like a small fountain.Sitting on the ground covering his mouth, he wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, he could only look at Gu Xi's back and 'hum' a few times.

When Yang Xiaoyu broke in, she didn't see Xiao Taohua in the hall.I saw the little young master sitting on the ground dumbfounded and saw Yang Xiaoyu, and immediately crawled over drooling.Seeing this, the little maid who was following her screamed in fright.

The landlord came after a while, and Yang Xiaoyu asked coldly when she saw her: "Master Wu, is there an old lady bringing a little girl here today?"

The landlord first gave the servant a wink, and the servant quickly took the young master beside Yang Xiaoyu away.

Yang Xiaoyu asked Landlord Wu again: "Master Wu, have you seen it?"

Seeing this, Landlord Wu felt a little uneasy in his heart.But he was also a person who had seen strong winds and waves. He sat quietly on the high seat and said to Yang Xiaoyu: "Well, the person surnamed Zhang brought a little girl here. What are you doing?"

Yang Xiaoyu explained: "It's like this, that little girl is my younger sister. If something happens, please ask that aunt to take care of it. Now I'm going to find my younger sister to go back."

"Huh? Is it your own sister? The surname Zhang said that the little girl is a wild child picked up." Landlord Wu looked at Yang Xiaoyu, and didn't say where she went.Slowly playing Tai Chi with Yang Xiaoyu in circles.

Yang Xiaoyu asked again: "Master Wu, can you kindly tell us where the little girl is?"

"This, this... Well! Hey, don't be in a hurry. Sit down and have a cup of tea." Master Wu raised his hand and told his servants: "Come here, serve tea to the guests."
